I never watched this show, but two of my friends did and at least one was a Destiel shipper. I can't wait for the last two episodes to see the fandom reaction, whichever the results are.

if only dean wasn't an abusive pos who's literally never apologized for the absolutely gawd awful way he's been treating castiel damn near since they met. telling him no one cares he's broken when castiel was in the midst of a whole ass mental breakdown. doing fuck all when castiel basically told him that if he had to go back to heaven and see what he'd caused he'd kill himself. constantly demanding castiel put his neck out for him without giving him anything in return. etc etc etc. who tf is still rooting for this??

also why am i here???? i literally dropped this show in s7 and i still have SO MANY EMOTIONS ABOUT IT

[spacemonkey_699]

I dropped it in S6 but a part of me has never let go of Dean and Cas, as it was a fun time in SPN fandom for me, you know, 10 years ago. I was completely shocked and horrified when my friend who still watches filled me in on all that shit you just said, like jesus christ, Dean Winchester, who raised you? (oh right)

[coocoo4oc_slash]

yeah dean has been the absolute worst for a while lol

I said somewhere else that I'm happy I'd dropped the show when I did, before I completely lost any fondness for the characters. I still ship Destiel but I ship the idea of it from the "original" seasons. Like, I'd prefer to read fanfiction from a good writer or write it myself with the old cast than ever return to watch the show.

I have never watched this show but the destial memes all over my dashboard have been incredible

Haven't seen a single episode and it's one of my proudest achievements--but can a ship be considered canon if it's clearly one-sided and the other party is reacting like a 6th-grader who's hearing the girl in his English class read aloud a love letter to him in the cafeteria?

[chllschse]

That's my reaction. LOL. It's more of a case of unrequited love vs. tru wuv. But I guess people get excited over what they can get.

its canon in the sense that its not fanon.

I guess it is when you've been clinging onto a show for 11 years desperately writing meta about how it's the truest love ever.
